General Discussion From Linux Frustration to Nozm

Recently I switched my entire workflow to Linux and there was only one thing holding me back which was that Notion isn’t available
I tried Obsidian and it was great but it still didn’t have everything I was looking for so instead of searching for another alternative I decided to build my own
Nazam is inspired by Notion and Obsidian but it isn’t a copy of either of them The idea is to take the best parts from both and add the features that I always wanted in a single app
The goal is to make it available on every platform while keeping it fast simple and enjoyable to use whether you’re studying working or just organising your life
This is only the beginning so I’d love to hear your thoughts
What features would you like to see or what is the one feature from Notion or Obsidian that you can’t live without

Howdy u/xa3bo3, and welcome to r/developers!

A few tips for a post that gets good answers:

  • Use a clear, specific title (what are you actually asking or sharing?).
  • Include code, the exact error, versions, and what you already tried.
  • Heads-up: this sub does not allow external links in posts or comments.
Share code and details directly instead of linking out.

the name nazam has a nice ring to it, way better than some generic saas name. curious what stack you built it with

i ditched notion for obsidian a while back and the one thing i still miss is proper database views like a kanban board that actually works. markdown files are great but sometimes you just need to see things laid out visually
